PROGRAM OBJECTIVES:
To aid very low income families in obtaining decent,
safe, and sanitary rental housing. For Welfare-to-Work rental vouchers,
families must also meet special welfare-to-work criteria. HUD
regulations merged the former Section 8 Rental Voucher program (14.855)
with the former Section 8 Certificate program (14.857). Section 502 of
the Public Housing Reform Act states that a purpose of the legislation
is "consolidating the voucher and certificate programs for rental
assistance under Section 8 of the United States Housing Act of 1937 (the
"USHA") into a single market-driven program that will assist in making
tenant-based rental assistance more successful at helping low-income
families obtain affordable housing and will increase housing choice for
low-income families."
